Specifying Anchor tags within Javascript history hyperlink

[HarryVincent]

I've built a form that gets to a certain point and allows the user to click links in order to return to previous pages and alter info if need be. I'm using history.back() to send them to the previous page, but I'd like for to further control where they end up on the previous page. I have defined anchor tags but I'm not sure how to call them properly.

My current code looks like this:
<a href="javascript:history.back()">

I'm thinking I need something along these lines (but this doesn't work):
<a name="#info" href="javascript:history.back()">

You will not be able to achieve this, unless you use some sort of cookie solution, I don't believe.

I feared as much...

Thanks!

To do this with a normal URL, you would simply do:

mypage.htm#info

But due to permissions, you can't access the actual URL of the history object (although you could open it in a frame and get the link that way, although that would be slightly extravagant).
